MIRCEA ELIADE, MEMOIRS: BETWEEN AUTOBIOGRAPHY AND LITERATURE

Summary/Abstract: MIRCEA ELIADE'S MEMOIRS PRESENT TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC A LESS KNOWN FACE OF THE GREAT ROMANIAN WRITER. THIS WRITING, CHARACTERIZED BY SINCERITY, DOES NOT FALL WITHIN THE SPHERE OF LITERARY FICTION, BUT BRINGS INTO QUESTION THE DEEP LITERARY NATURE OF A TRULY FABULOUS LIFE, OF AN EXISTENCE THAT PROJECTS ITS PROTAGONIST ON THE REALM OF THE IMPROBABLE THROUGH ITS SIMPLE CONSUMPTION. BEYOND ITS HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL VALUE, THIS WRITING ALSO OFFERS A NEW KEY TO UNDERSTANDING ELIADE’S LITERARY FICTION. IN A GESTURE OF BOUNDLESS GENEROSITY, MIRCEA ELIADE SHARES WITH THE READER DETAILS, SECRETS AND FEELINGS, ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF A LIFE THAT CAN BE CONSIDERED EXTRAORDINARY IN THE TRUE SENSE OF THE WORD.
